Jonah Hill told a podcast he would annihilate anybody who tested him, the internet turned it into a week of memes, and Covino and Rich are taking his side. That leads into the real debate: would you buy Jonah Hill as an action star? Bob Odenkirk did it in Nobody. Liam Neeson did it in Taken. Steven Seagal never looked the part and still ran the 90s, and Rich finally admits what he used to do with a ponytail and a bathrobe in his mother's kitchen. Before that, the guys dig into celebrations in sports after Mets rookie Jefry Yan leaped off the mound and set baseball on fire, breaking down why hitters can bat flip and moonwalk while a pitcher having fun is treated like a felony. Then football is officially back, which means the guys are reissuing the one Covino and Rich rule every new couple ignores: date someone a full calendar year before you decide anything, because the person you met at the beach in July has no idea what you turn into between now and Valentine's Day. Episode 150 of the uncensored bonus pod from Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
Do it, Episode one fifty Love doing this with you, guys,
over promised.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
I'm rich. That is Kobino. It's our favorite twenty something
minute show of the week. Now we do lots of
shows Monday through Thursday on Patreon Uncensored, Unleashed, Covino and
Rich Patreon dot com, Slash Covino and Rich d. Perhaps
you know us from the world famous Covino on Richell
on Fox Sports Radio, and a bunch of fillings for
Dan Patrick in the next few weeks. Yeah, we got

(00:36):
the hat trick coming up. The hat trick coming up.
But we're on Monday through Friday two to four on
the West out here in La five to seven on
the East. Cool. I'm so excited, I'm gonna jump up
like I'm fucking Jeffery Young. Well you know what you
hold that thought. We're gonna talk about him. We're gonna
talk about awesome or get the full guta. He will
explain the next action hero. Who might it be? Is

(00:58):
it convincing or not? We'll explain becaus, dating and relationships
during football because today is a special night. Well it
depends on you when you're watching, but either way, we're
diving into it.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
Today a special day for all football fans, just because
even though the game that you're about to see tonight
not the best matchup Cardinals, you know, Panthers, but it
just symbolizes a change in your life.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
So we'll get to it. But uh, Jeffrey Young jump
Browning him or what like him? And House of Pain
and the Pointer sisters and jump van Halen. Let's jump man.
Now it's the first thing I think your Mets had
to cheer about all years. It's uh, it.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
Really is in a year of disappointments, in garbage and
disappointment and almost like in garbage, it almost like garbage
and laughing disappointment, laughable sadness, like just in garbage and garbage.
The Mets have been so bad that the coolest thing
that happened this year is calling up a pitcher that
has the best celebration in all of baseball strike out at.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Celebrates. It's only Jeffrey Young cat a great set, he
could jump high as well left right, and the only
excite the New York Mets. And it got us thinking.
My first thought is this because I see a lot
of speculation, a lot of back and forth on social media,
like you act like you've been here. It's like, well,

(02:20):
you know, he's excited, and it's sort of like his
natural progression, his celebration. He's been doing it in the minors,
and maybe that's just who he is and how he plays.
But my first thought is if batters are allowed to
bat flip and throw the bout up thirty feet in
the air and celebrate and and pimp themselves and do
the gritty and do all these crazy things this day

(02:41):
round third and you know, I saw one dude do
the worm. I think home someone moonwalked, I think the
home plate around second, If they're allowed to do all
these things, yeah, pictures can't celebrate. It's a weird.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
It's a weird thing when you really think about celebration
in sports because when you think about people celebrating, I
just took a couple people from the last you know, weeks,
just like.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
I've always said, celebrate good times. You've always said that,
can I can? I start with pc A Pete crow Armstrong.
They highlighted how cool his bat flip was because it
was more of like a it's always like a it's
also like, yeah, I'm the man, look at this, the guy,
but like just a little. That was cool. That's cool.

(03:22):
I don't know if it was premeditated or like, you know,
orchestrated or rehearsed, but it happened. Great.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
But how about your boy Jazz Chisholm Jazz recently running
down to first does a little like a.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Step or whatever around third bangy, And that's okay. It's
fine showmanship, right. The game needs excitement. It's a little
in your face, it's a little bit of omni man's
little mix of all of that. But I'm not mad
at it. The game evolves, and if batters are allowed
to do this and it brings excitement, then pictures should

(03:57):
be allowed to do whatever too. Pictures are allowed to
do that. They're allowed to police the game. They could throw,
you know, one high and tight at you if they want.
Who did you say? Just yesterday?

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Is bringing a next level excitement to the Phillies, his
new team.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
He's come with a bit of fury. So he's come
with some fury. Look at this bat flip we're gonna
due to the team home, crowded Philadelphia. Damn, he's not
to look at the dugout do that he's playing with
some fire man.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
I am all about Jeffrey Yenn doing this jump. I
mean it reminds me of a you know other pictures
you were thinking about the old who's the old guy
back in there. Our parents would talk about Al Roboski,
the Hungarian. It's like every you know those VHS tapes
we'd get from like s I or whatever, like Maishbow
funny shot up.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
They'd always focus on our blooper videos, the man Hungarian,
Al Roboski, and he would just be over the animated
and angry on the mound and yeah, he would just
see he was very animated guy fighting all the time,
you know, full of fury, you know, punching his mid
really excit. Al Raboski makes me think of Fernando Rodney

(05:05):
with his tilted hat and he's shooting mo's and arrows
into the sky and his whole team taking pictures behind
him and he's shooting arrows like he was ridiculous for
Nando Rodney. It's not the first or the last. You remember,
my dude.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
He was on the Cubs and the Mets, maybe other
teams as well. Remember Turk Wendell.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Yes, of course he would wear the sharp teeth around
his neck. He take the rosen bag, slam it right,
circle the mound two times, slam it down. Didn't have
an apple and hit the apple? Didn't he pish somebody
with a guitar one time? You're thinking, do you talk
about I think, didn't you shoot somebody? Was cane? Didn't
we the chair? Maybe Turk Wendell was great. Yeah he

(05:46):
was out of control that dude. But when you talk
about people having a problem with this picture jumping, it's fine.
Exhibit A, the bat flip, exhibit bait.

Speaker 1 (05:55):
There have been pictures that have been showman's But can
I take you to other sports? Anytime in NFL, wide
receiver or tight end or running back gets a first down, what.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
Do they do exactly selling down?

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Anytime an NFL player gets a sack, what do they
do like they're digging like gavers.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
On the sports it's supposed to be fun. Now if
it hurts your any bitty feelings, you have to ask
yourself how soft am I? Is this guy trying to
show me up? Or is he celebrating? Either way? Like
I think you can handle it, get him next time.
Isn't that how the game works? Dude? First down? And
this is football, by the way, you don't like his antics.

(06:32):
Get him?

Speaker 1 (06:33):
Do you ever read the Super Bowl the spot? I
don't expect our video. Got to have the video on standby,
but I just remembered, remember Kendrick Bourne forty nine is
wide receiver.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
He taught me how to do. He's like, you go
ahead and then you go first down like they or
every good show Rich does that. What does the defense
do on every turnover in the NFL? They post together
in the end zone like it's a class photo. Exactly.
There's always something in basketball.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
When Steph Curry hits a big time three, what does
he do when he's running down the court.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
You know, I'm actually surprised that that's okay. Celebrations on
the mound are that few and far between. You know,
pictures are kind of boring now that I think about it.
There should be more of that. I think, like, you know,
hell yeah, Like that's that's great too.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
I really do think we made the point that for
some reason, I don't know, if it's the control position
of a picture, maybe it's supposed to be to be composed,
maybe old school respected and composed more. But when you
really do think about sports, why is it wild that
if someone scores a goal in hockey or soccer, they
can rip their shirt off, slide on their knees, first
down interception. Everything has this elaborate celebration bathlips.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
When a pitcher jumps, it's headline news and he's on
the Mets. No less, he's making headlines on the Mets,
you know, because it's so rare.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
But you know, what you do, open yourself up to mocking.
But I think that's also fun for baseball. Like when
he did that, the Cleveland Guardians ended up taking the
lead in that game and the dugout mocked him.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
But later in the game the Mets like de Leade again.
So I think it's good for baseball. I'll say it again.
If you don't like it, you better get around on
that fastball. He was throwing some heat. He was throwing heat.
You know, get him, get him. It's it's it's all fair,
it's all good. Get him. If you don't like it,
get them. And it goes both ways. You could celebrate too,
So I'm all for it. And I think your Mets

(08:19):
needs something to eat, anything cheer about. And it's not
the first time we've seen it, and I hope, I
hope it keeps going on. I hope it starts a trend.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
What a weird you know. I love the word juxtaposition.
When they're on the mound, they're expected to be composed.
But every big time closer from Mo Rivera to Trevor
Hoffman to uh now Edwin Diaz, these guys have sick
entrances like their w his showmanship. So we ask you
Fox Sports Radio Nation, over Promised Nation, is it awesome?

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Or give the fool got it? That's the question. It
is the question. Think about it and let us know
at Covin and Rich at Fox Sports Radio that awesome
or get the full Gay's it's awesome. I know it's
baseball and soul school. A lot of old people are
not gonna like it. But it's fun. It's fun.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
I'm down now. You played a clip the other day
on our Fox Sports Radio still.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
Completely viral, you know since.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Of course, and I find it so funny because the
memes and the mockery that have come out of this
next level, like look at this nerd he was bullied.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Ever know why? Because they the sentiment is especially in
martial arts, right, It's like, what is the sentiment again?
I'm just ying. It's like anyone who could truly kick
some ass doesn't need to brag about it, right, and.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
True martial arts experts, martial artists would say, it's only
like the last resort exactly, like you don't want to
fight someone, but if it need.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
Be self protection at that point. Right. But again, we
have to remember where Jonah Hill is coming from and
who he's talking to. He's talking to, you know, Jason
Bateman is on the podcast and everything, and his love
of mixed martial arts and jiu jitsu comes up and
he wants to make it very clear, and that's what's
gone viral, and that's why people have a problem with it.
I'm not that fat guy anymore, so he has a

(10:04):
lot to prove. He's got a chip on his shoulder. Basically,
take a look. I love Brazilian jiu jitsu.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
I love except my body is begging me to not
love it. Forty two isn't. My wife is often like,
you're not going to become like a professional fighter, you
know that, right, Like you're a comedian.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Like, but let me ask you something. If we got
into it, I would fuck you up.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
Fuck yeah, I would fuck all but truly yeah, And
that's the best part. My favorite thing is people are like, oh,
Jonah Hill, a fucking fat guy from super bell And
I'm like, I would fucking annihilate that.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
So he's saying I would annihilate you again showmanship though
he supposed to do and not have fun in the moment.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
Podcast, baman, he's always that SmartLess so it's a fun podcast.
So I'm not getting shit on Jonah Hill. In fact,
I love his answer. I think it was a very
funny clip. I believe there's some truth to it.

Speaker 2 (10:55):
Like in reality, he's still a small guy. But if
you're not spect it prepared, physically fit, he'll probably wreck you. Yeah,
he'll take you down. He knows moves. You can't come bat.
It's like, uh and by the way, here's some of
the memes which are hilarious. Sebastian Maniscalco does that whole bit.
Like back in the day, you take a shoulder at

(11:15):
the club and yeah, you throw up your hands and
maybe you have a little tussle. Nowadays, you don't know
who you're messing with. Some guy will jump on you
like a monkey, bite your ears and put you in
a choke hold and you're done. So that's a funny one.
They call the super bad I called an ambulance. I
know it's so funny. I do think that he could
hold his own and probably wreck more asked than we

(11:36):
give him credit for, because we have this image of
who Jonah Hill is, but he has a clear motive
to remind you that he's not that guy. Mush and
I know you love a big butt. Yeah I do.
It's a big butt. Cannot lie.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
But would you buy Jonahill if they casted him as
an action star?

Speaker 2 (11:56):
Are you saying that he's the next action hero? I'm
just saying he goes.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
There have been action stars that I don't necessarily buy,
but the movies are fantastic. You recently watched Nobody and
Nobody to Bob Odenkirk. Who's fantastic? Better call Saul. He's
a comedian, a serious actor. Saw Goodman Man, We've had
him on the show. I love, I love Bob Odenkirk.
But if you could buy Bob Odenkirk beating up a

(12:23):
Russian gang on a on a bus, maybe you could buy.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
Jonah Hill beating some people up? And what about spot
You jump ahead? But I love it? Go to Liam Neeson,
because that's the other guy that came to mind from more.
When you see nobody with Odinkirk, you think it's very
reminiscent of Liam Neeson is the first time I saw
him and taken You're like, dude, Liam Neeson's an ask kicker.
That's awesome.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
He loved it, you remember, it was like I will
find you and I will kill you like this guy,
and then it ended up being pretty damn cool.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
And I know you're gonna disagree because he's one of
your heroes and I know you had his poster in
your room growing up, but like, visibly, he didn't look
the part. I know he was in real life, but
Steven Segal, how did he look like he was? In
a time of action heroes of Schwarzenegel, Van Damn Stallone.
He's the guy that actually was the part but necessarily
didn't look the part, right, I mean, I know he

(13:10):
can kick ass, just for his thumb. There's no photo fingertips.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
Remember remember A Heart to Kill, the guy had a
gun and Segal's like, oh, I'll get down on my knees.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
Eddie Hard to kill. I'll tell you the bank, the
blood bank, the blood bank. So My point is if
we bought that, then maybe you can buy a Jonah Hill.
I love him running and I and we totally understand
that he is a master of the martial arts. We
get all that, but as he got older, he didn't.

(13:41):
Right there, he looks felt and handsome. Who you betting
on in the race? Barry Goldberg or Steven Segall Steven
Saga often gets made fun of for how he runs. Yeah,
So the question is would you buy Jonah Hill as
an action star? And it also makes you think of
other celebrities I could really kick ass like Zuckerberg. You

(14:03):
think you can mess him up or you think he
could really take you down right in that setting, he
probably could because you don't train that way. We've interviewed
Freddie Roach and we asked him that question. Of all
the celebrities that get in the ring and they train,
you know who actually could throw some hands? Tom Holland recently,
who's the biggest star in the world right now? People
are saying, Yo, this dude could really throw some hands.
He's surprisingly good when it comes to training. I don't

(14:24):
know if he could really fight, but he could box.
And Freddie Roach said to us Mario Lopez, believe it
or not. He could tussle man, he could throw, he
could wrestle. He can get in there and mix it
up with everybody. But look, there's Zuckerberg with is real
lot of sonia. You know what I mean. I've never
told you this, Volkanowski, I've never told you this before.
But when I was a kid, I love Segull so much.
Can I This is really funny. I would get out

(14:46):
of the bath of the shower when I was a
little boy, and I had a mullet in the late
eighties early nineties, because everyone did. Some people had a rattail.
He had a mullet. When I met you, I had
a mullet and my hair was a little longer. Would
you believe I would slick back my hair after I
took a bath, and I'd put in a ponytail, and
I would do karate moves in the kitchen. But I
believe that, Yes, of course it wouldn't thought I was

(15:07):
Steven Sigalborough. So he's the best celebrities who can kick
ass Jonah Hill one You ever see Segaull touch someone
and they flip over? Yes, I have? Is he the
next Jason Statham? I slicked my hair back just like
that is Jonah Hill. Honestly, in a comedic way. It
could be funny, I think, because he's funny, right, so

(15:27):
let's not take away his comedy chops. He's supposed to
be a funny guy, right. Could you enjoy a movie
where he brings some humor into action hero? So it
is ridiculous, but I think I could. What if it
was a funny movie.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
Now I'm giving him a storyline and he's gonna make
him make millions and I get nothing. But what if
Jonah Hill based on this funny viral video. What if
there's a video where he's part of like a heist
gone wrong and the whole joke is he's like the
stoner guy.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
But he's like, yeah, guys, but I've been like secretly.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
Training Mma and all his buddies make fun of him.
But because of that, like he saves the day. Like
there's a plot there somewhere.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
Have you ever seen Kunk Pound Enter the Fist from
two thousand and two? Honestly, I think you should watch it.
It's the most ridiculous movie ever. Powe Entered the Fist.
It's so I have not funny dude, it's hysterical. It's
like an underrated like karate comedy, kung Fu Panda. Well,
I think Jonah Hill should take his talents and use them.

(16:23):
He's a funny guy who could maybe kick a little
bit of ass. He could have some puhone with it,
and maybe that's the next movie. We uh we go
and see after Spider Man this weekend. So I don't know.
I don't think he could be a Schwarzenegger type, but
I think he could bust out some moves that impress us.
And you know, i'd go see it, Well I would.
I wouldn't go see it, but I would watch it

(16:44):
at home.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
To take it back, to take it back you don't
know though, to take it back to the previous conversation.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
Awesome or get the yeah, what are you saying Jonah
Hill fighting in a movie? Also, it's so right there
in the middle. I'm gonna say awesome, just to be
kind to the guy.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
All right, all right, So today is a very special day.
It is it's almost your birthday.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
Birthday weekend, bro, It's uh, it's a Thursday.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
That is symbolic. No one gives a shit about a
preseason football game between the panthers and the cardinals. But
life changes there yet you do because it symbolizes the
beginning of a pattern changes. You know, doctor phil like said,
talk about patterns. You and I have had this theory before.
And the other day on our show, Mike.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
Who runs his place, Yeah, he came in and he
was the whole topic.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
Was life advice in the world of relationships, and you know,
just in general, what are what are great pieces of
advice you've received? And I want to remind everyone of
a conveni on rich piece of advice. If you're dating
someone new, You've always joked that I'm adamant about you
need to date a girl a fuller year before you

(18:01):
could really assess where you guys.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
Are well, because habits changed during different times. We'll think
about it.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
How are you in the summer if you live in
a beach or Laketown. Might be the type of person
that doesn't realize, oh, wait, you go out drinking by
the lake every weekend, or you know, it might be
a situation where, oh, you're a big snowboarder.

Speaker 2 (18:19):
I wasn't expecting that.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
I think a lot of women don't realize and men too.
But you know, mostly women, let's be honest with sexist No. Yes,
but I think a lot of women don't realize from
now until February they're dating a new guy. They might
not realize how if he's into pro football, add college

(18:43):
on top of that, add fantasy football, gambling, everything he does,
you're going to see a different version of that person.
And if you're a guy that does all that, you're
going to see the response of that new woman you're dating.
Like it might be the fourth quarter of a game
on a Sunday and she's like, come on, we gotta go.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
To the mall, and the mall, yeah, we gotta go
to home gooods. Do you want to come to Costco
with me? Like? No, I'm watching football, so I think
selfishly and just to you know, And you're right though,
it goes both way, well rounded, like yeah, based on habits,
but your habits for the most part, are going to
change for the next six months. You need to be
with a person that is understanding and acceptable that you

(19:21):
can't be.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
If you're a football fanatic, if you're the person that
watches college football on Saturday, NFL football on Sunday, Hey,
you got Monday night plans? You got Thursday night plans.
Most of the week, you're like locked in to NFL
or college football. The person you're dating, it might come
as a shock if you're a new Let's say it's
a summer fling, right, imagine this, I met her at
the beach this summer. She might be in for fucking

(19:45):
something she's not ready for.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Ravishing, rick, rude awakening, rude awakening. Bro. Just there's so
many important things to keep in mind. Are they kind?
Do they get along with your family? We went over
all those rules, right, but can they deal with you
three hundred and sixty five days of the year. As
seasons change, as football kicks in, I think it's important information.

(20:08):
Enjoy the season.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
Now until Lover's Day, and from now until Valentine's Day.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
NFL football, let's go enjoy, enjoy. And on that note, yeah, hey,
have a great Thursday. Enjoy is trash game tonight. Enjoy
the trash, be nice to have it on the background, right,
and enjoy the weekend. Have a drink on my behalf. Hey,
until next time, the baby see you in the over
Promised Land. Come on,
